name: Indian Institute of Technology Bombay
description: 'The Indian Institute of Technology Bombay (IIT Bombay), founded in 1958 and located in Powai, Mumbai, is one
  of India''s premier engineering and research institutions, ranked #97 in the QS World University Rankings 2025. Its public
  developer footprint is largely student- and community-driven rather than a central institutional API program: the Students''
  Gymkhana operates an OAuth 2.0 "Profiles" identity API, the Institute Technical Council runs an ITC Single Sign-On service,
  and the Central Library exposes an OAI-PMH 2.0 interface over its DSpace institutional repository. No unified central developer
  portal was found; access to several APIs is gated to IIT Bombay infrastructure.'
